Congrats aravis227,

Sure sucks about your Bio Rocks, Sucks big time for the VSC applicants, would be nice if USCIS could actually let people know what the heck is going on, they can post on their website about Haitians being given extensions, why not inform the paying customers as to why the big delays in processing applications.

I know right. They just told me the local office is busy, that's it. If it's so busy then they need to take some people from these fast places and get it to move along.

Yes I have, numerous times. I called them on Wednesday and still nothing. I would advise calling them and seeing what their excuse for you is! They sent me a letter a while after I first called them telling me I 'should' hear something within 60 days of the date on letter. Everyone else that called got an email telling them their local office was busy and they would receive an appointment soon, which makes me think New Orleans is the most backlogged.

Hi Everyone...We went for our biometrics appointment in Raleigh NC Friday. It took us 2 1/2 hours to get there and we were in & out in 20 minutes! It almost took us longer to go through the dang metal detectors than it did for the actual appointment. My husband said the lady rolled his fingers about 10 times but finally got his prints! So now the waiting game. I am really praying we get the green card before we go to Jordan in September, but at the rate VSC is going right now...I'm not so sure! At least the biometrics part is over now...just wait.

hi rocks, so i called today to see whats up with my Bio letter, the guy was very nice on the phone, he didnt give me any reason why the delay (and i didnt ask him).

fyi...i just counted, there are now 3 of us in the Raleigh/Durham NC area who have filed in May and all 3 of us have not got our Bio Letters yet. so im not so worried...

Glad to hear it all went well, at least that part is over now. Was it busy there?

Yeah, it's not worth worrying about really, they'll send you an appointment when they're ready. It seems like some places are struggling to keep up with the number of applicants. I'm really not surprised New Orleans is so slow. Like Popeyes says, Louisiana fast :bonk:

It's weird that they took everyones email address but not mine, I don't understand why that happened. Hopefully your email says you only have to wait 30 days and not 60 like my letter. :)

I wouldn't worry about that. I gave them my email address but they didn't send anything there... the letter I received was sent via snail mail.
